789 Old County Road Project

The 789 Old County Road Project in San Carlos, California, involves the construction of two new office and research and development buildings—one five stories tall at 179,665 square feet and the other four stories at 146,983 square feet—with maximum roof heights of approximately 85 and 69 feet respectively. Complementing the buildings is an eight-level above-ground parking structure reaching 71.5 feet to the last occupied floor, along with tenant amenities and enhancements to surrounding streets and streetscapes. The site is located at 789 Old County Road in San Mateo County, with the City of San Carlos serving as the contracting agency and the Planning Division managing procurement. Environmental compliance under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) is central to the project, having been approved via a Mitigated Negative Declaration that mandates implementation of specified mitigation measures and adherence to monitoring protocols. State regulatory requirements include payment of a Fish and Wildlife fee under Senate Bill 1535, reflecting potential impacts on sensitive habitats. While the project has received final approval as of October 14, 2025, with the solicitation posted on October 15, 2025, no contract value, pricing structure, period of performance, or delivery schedule is provided. Information on contract administration roles such as COR, COTR, or PCO is absent, and no details on invoicing, accounting codes, or payment instructions are included. Although contact information is available for Lisa Costa Sanders, Principal Planner, and Daniel Minkoff, Partner, neither is formally designated in a contract administration capacity. The project lacks any referenced Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, federal procurement clauses, inspection and acceptance protocols, evaluation factors for award, or offeror certifications, indicating this is a locally administered, non-federal construction initiative governed exclusively by state and municipal processes. No specifications on packaging, labeling, delivery terms, proposal formats, submission deadlines, or acceptable media for bids are present, highlighting the focus on environmental clearance rather than formal contract solicitation procedures.
